I'm not a Labour supporter, but even I know you are completely wrong. Labour are now the second biggest party in Scotland, before it was the the Lib Dems.

That's untrue.

So when he's repeatedly asked what he would do and what he would cut and refuses to answer, you think this is ok?

So.... exactly like Cameron when he was in opposition?

I'm not saying Scameron is any better, just that opposition parties would do better if they were more constructive.

The advance of the SNP doesn't help the Tories. Scotland is a dead duck to the Tories anyway, they will always struggle to get seats there so as long as it is part of the UK the majority of Scottish MPs will be sitting on the opposite side of the chamber to the Tories. So if the Tories can't get an overall majority, the rise of the SNP is a problem if they have to approach them to work in coalition. However, if there is a hung parliament, I can see the SNP working with Labour if they force Labour into some concessions.

Why are the tories so obsessed with the union if getting rid of all those Scottish MP's will help them?

Yes it will help them but they are ideologically a unionist party so there wouldn't be much point them supporting something they are completely opposed to.

Do you not think this is partly a pretence though?

The fightback certainly has begun in Scotland Ed... The fightback against your parties mediocrity.

Ed Miliband is the most ridiculous Labour leader in the history of the party's existence. Turning up at an "anti-cuts rally" while being pro-cuts. Comparing said "anti-cuts rally" to the Civil Rights Movement. Supporting intervention in Libya despite the saps of the "anti-cuts rally" waving placards saying "Hands Off Libya". Calling for the Labour Party to "rediscover" its "anti-Americanism" during his election campaign. Appointing Alan Johnson as Shadow Chancellor. All of this, and he's only been Leader of the Opposition for 9 months, and is not anywhere near entering government yet. People actually want this lunatic to be PM?

No, the Conservative party has been a unionist party through its history as far as I know. They don't want to see Britain's influence in the world weakened, which it would be if Scotland was removed.

Au contraire Stanley, Ed Miliband's profile has rarely been higher thanks to your promotion of him on TSR.

[EssexDan86]

Listen to his voice... unfortunately, voters focus on things like image, and Ed doesn't come across very well. DAVID Milliband should be leading Labour...

[AspiringGenius]

Labour still has more seats in Scotland than the Conservatives.

[Spaz Man]

Labour look very weak on the economy which will be the main battleground of the 2015 election.

The Daily Fail has gone full spread on the Milibands feud.

It reveals that Ed Miliband didn't have a girlfriend during his entire time at Oxford. I bet he would have had about 600000 posts on TSR if it had been around then.

But before you call him a lame virgin - it also tells us he was banging Stephanie Flanders after he left uni, so I am now jealous.
